Field Review:
Well, this was our first time EVER playing at a pro field, so needless to say, we didnt really know what to expect. We pulled up, got out and walked up to the field. At first sight, it appeared well maintained, organized and neat. It was every bit of that and more. MVP park (http://mvppark.com) has everything that any paintballer could ask for. They have 2 speedball courses (1 airball and 1 "urban assault" type) as well as a 100 acre+ woodsball field. So lets break this down:


-Woodsball field:
Awesome 100 acre field with a creek bed(2 briges across the creek) and a awesome ridgeline. Very well kept with great cover EVERYWHERE! Two sides, one is mostly a big field with tall grass. Once you reach the creek you get into the wooded section.
Overall: 5/5

-Staff:
The staff at MVP is very kind and helpful. Any questions you had, they we're more than happy to answer. If you wanted to try their personal gear, they let you. Very awesome staff.
Overall: 5/5

-Speedball Fields:
Great speedball fields. The Urban Assault field was my favorite. Very well kept and clean. Not much else to say, they we're awesome, just like everything else.
Overall: 5/5

-Equipment:
Their rental gear was composed of Tippmann 98 Customs, V-Force Shield Goggles, Barrel Bags and Compressed Air Tanks. Very good equipment: They offer both Compressed air and C02 Fills.
Overall: 5/5

-Paint:
They offered Proball(High end) and Spank(Rec). They were out of Proball, so we only got to use Spank. For the price, they were good. Had a couple of busts when I was using my Thompson, however, when I switched over to my A5, didnt have any problems. The Spank paint was a bit dented and flatened on some balls, but still shot decent. Ill add a Proball review later. Prices were $35 for 1000 and $55 for 2000.
Overall: 3.7/5

Field Overall:
Great staff, nice facilites, good equipment and frekin sweet fields. MVP paintball is definilty gonna be a good home for F.E.A.R.

Scenario Description:
Well the premis for this sceanrio was based off the movie Red Dawn. The teams were:
Amerians
Russians
F.E.A.R was chosen for the Russian side. The day was composed of 5 30-45 minute long missions. Each side had 1 medic who had a limted supply of bandages in which they could heal you with.

Mission 1: Operation Homeland Defense:
The Americans had to defend the "school house". The Russians were on the complete other side of the field. The objective for the Russians was to get each of their players in the "School House" before time was up. The Americans successfully defended the School House.

Mission 2: Operation Convoy:
The Russians started on the opposite side of the field and had to convoy 4 ammo cans to the American base. The ammo cans had prizes in them, and if you either got the can in the American base or had the can in your possession at the end of the game, you got to keep the prize. The Russians successfully got 3 out of the 4 cans in the base. Prizes included squeegees, Pods with Paint, goggle bags, and more bandages for the medics.

Mission 3: Operation Demolition:
The objective of this mission was to find specially marked ammo cans hid in the woods. These cans acted as "demolition charges". If found and placed in the oppositions base, you were awared a point. This game basically turned into a fire fight. One can was found by the Russians, however, it was'nt planted in the American base.

Mission 4: Operation Escort:
Each team was given a "Dignitary". The objective was to get your Dignitary in the opposite teams base. Tanix took the role of our dignitary, and I took the role as medic. The Americans successfully got their diplomat in the Russian base.

Mission 5: Operation Deadly Strike
This mission there was no respawn timer. It was 1 shot elmination with No medics. It was an all out assault. The Russians took charge of the whole thing, only suffering 2 losses. Cowboy won the game for us with his litteral last second shot. He hit Wes "Ion guy" with 5 seconds remaining in the game.

Final Result:
Americans: 11
Russians: 10
